Falcon Igniters (also known as, Consumer Igniters, Nichrome Igniters, Electric Igniters, and Safety Ingiters) are a 100% safe alternative to conventional electic matches. Falcon igniters contain no pyrotechnic material and therefore are not regulated by the BATF. No federal license is required to purchase, and they are perfectly safe to ship via UPS and Fed Ex.



Falcon igniters incorporate a hinged connector, similar in design to a clothespin, that simply clamps onto a fuse. When an electric current (between 6V - 48V at 2.5A) is passed through the igniter, the tiny wire element inside begins to glow white hot and lights the attached fuse. There is no flame created, only a very hot glowing element. Falcon igniters are designed to work well with most types of visco fuse, especially visco found on typical consumer fireworks. However, heavily coated or waterproof visco can be difficult to light, and those types of visco should be avoided. Falcon igniters will also readily light other types of fuse, like quickmatch, blackmatch, and sticky match. And the best part is since Falcon igniters contain no pyrotechnic material they can be purchased by the public without any special license and be shipped just about anywhere.

With Falcon igniters you can utilize just about any kind of firing system to igniter them. They perform best when fired at between 6V-12V and between .5A-2A. We recommend any of the fine firing systems found at http://www.FiringSystems.us.

When your show has got to go, you can count on Falcon igniters.
